Forgotten beauties: Anna Karina

For those of you who simply hate subtitles, this is Anna Karina – she’s a Danish lady who wowed fans of French New Wave cinema in the 1960s, with her delicate raven locks, her soft beautiful face, her fine set of smokey European eyes. She was Jean-Luc Godard’s muse. And should you neither have heard of him, he was the big throbbing brain behind movies like Pierrot le fou, Le Petit soldat, and La Chinoise. Yeah, now you remember. Now you’re up to speed. Anna was actually recommended as one of our great Forgotten Beauties by good friend of the site Sarah, who admits having a gargantuan girl-crush on the singer/model/actress. And we’re not surprised. If we were girls, we’d be exactly the same. She’s quite a femme, as they say in France.

As ever we’d consider it to be the height of rudeness to grant the boys/some girls a beauty like Anna Karina, without serving up a similar treat to those boys/girls who aren’t quite feeling it. Below is Tom Selleck.
